    2 US students sue Borat

    Yeah, "Borat" learned a lesson about New Yorkers. They usually don't like being f*cked around with...: COMEDIAN Sacha Baron Cohen was bashed by a passer-by in New York after he tried to play a prank as his alter ego, Borat. According to London's Sun newspaper Cohen, adopting the...

    Thanks. I just added an edit: Is it time for a drop? Just checking opinions. My systems don't care one way or the other. Good trading to all. :cool:

    From Today's The Big Picture

    From Barry: [/i]Today's explosion: $4B emini covering I've checked the grapevine, and have it on fairly good authority: Today's explosion was caused by a covering (or unwinding of) a 122k emini SPX contracts. That's a notational value of $4B. Someone's stop loss got triggered...

    QuoteTracker Bought out by TD AMERITRADE! YIKES!

    Tired of this annoying "demographic survey" popup. Do they really want my name, home phone and address? Do they think I would give it to them? :p

    Lost half of my years salary in a week!

    MP, I'll give you one thing, you were unfailingly polite and jovial to all here! But there, I think, is the problem some here have - This poor military guy lost darn near everything and yet you *seemed* not to care a whit? If you really are trying to get his money back, then kudos to you...

    What happened to gold at 6:39EST (13 nov)?

    "Loss cut Stops" are usually anything but. Maybe a better play is to put Buy limits in. If you get filled on a AH Drop and Pop, and your trade is not busted, then $$$$$$$$$$$$! Good luck to all. :cool:

    IB TWS is getting Ridiculously slow

    TWS (most of it) is downloaded to your computer every time you run it, unless you use the "installed" version. So it still runs on your machine and needs a good java install. There has been nothing wrong with the IB websites all day, that I have seen. Try clearing your java cache.

    Lost half of my years salary in a week!

    Sounds like "MP" is about to catch a fraud investigation, with a possible ensuing lawsuit. And if "he" has any official financial adviser certs, they will probably be removed upon a negative judgment. Yet here he is, cracking jokes after a relatively severe loss he caused to a service...

    ID theft from spyware - does IB and other brokers do anything to prevent this?

    Yes the question is a little strange - about like asking "is my bank responsible if a pickpocket steals my wallet?..." IB is responsible for keeping my data safe within its computer/corporate network.

    IB TWS is getting Ridiculously slow

    No problems here. Check all of your processes with TASK Manager and see what the CPU loadings are like.

    Thanks Spike. I hope everybody can see how bogus this phish crap is. Checkout the language and syntax. <img src="http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=1263775"/>

    CBOE Down no trading

    Fer crissakes if there is anything wrong ANYWHERE, IB did it... :p IB is a great broker, give 'em a break. Or just use another broker and STFU.

    ID theft from spyware - does IB and other brokers do anything to prevent this?

    You need Symantec, SpybotSD, a good firewall, etc. TWS is not a security program. It's a trading front end. IB does have, and I highly recommend it, a small security device that creates a coded number that must match for any account transaction. Get it. Use it! Good trading to all...
